The Unknown John Lee Hooker - 1949 Recordings

0

I got the 33 blues, just as blue as I can be
I got the 33 blues, just as blue as I can be
Something soon gonna happen people break down soon, I'm gonna have a break down soon

It started at this night gonna, come up to the top
This thing right there, God knows, God knows, all night long something soon got to going to happen
God knows, I can't last long
I got the 33 blues, people, just as blue as I can be

People is so fine, and the food is so nice [?]
But God know, these people, God knows, they, they killin' me
I got the 33 blues, God knows I can't last long
Something soon gonna happen, God knows I can't last long

I was talking with Marshall yesterday morning, now here's what I told him:
Looky here, now Marshall, listen, something soon gonna happen if you don't move this soon I got to go
I got the 33 blues, God knows I won't be here long
